The D-Word

Whenever people get married, the last thing they think is that this happy union will end in divorce. The reality is that no one can truly foresee the future. The sad reality is that people change over time. So while you may have been perfect for each other in the beginning, as both of you have aged and matured you have changed and come to the realization that maybe you are not compatible together anymore. You decide that staying in this relationship is unhealthy to both of you, and the best course of action is for you two to call it quits and move on with your lives. This, of course, is easier said than done, and there are issues at hand that may cause the split to be not so painless.

Complications of Divorce

Getting a divorce is not as easy as just breaking up with a boyfriend or a girlfriend. You have built a life together. So there are several reasons why divorce may be a complicated issue. The first and foremost is children. Children complicate the divorce as both parents truly love their children, and want to have their children with them. The issue custody and kids are often what makes a divorce such a messy ordeal. Many say that it is for this reason that they do not divorce. They “stay together for the children.” One has to ask themselves though, is it really in the best interest for the kids to live in a household where the marriage is not working out? The answer is no. So while a custody battle maybe heartbreaking ordeal just bear in mind that in the long run, it is truly better for everyone involved.
